MK II is the third album by the German power metal band Masterplan, so called because it features a new band line-up due to the departure of singer Jørn Lande and drummer Uli Kusch.

It is the only album to feature former Riot vocalist Mike DiMeo and the first to feature acclaimed drummer Mike Terrana.
